‎Changing Status of Women in Central Asia : a Comparative Study of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan [Hardcover]‎

‎ABOUT THE BOOK:- The present book critically observes the status of women in Central Asia after 1990's. The effects of Soviet legacy in the present context are also analyzed at extent. In contemporary transition period they are facing many problems including revival of religion, new democratic political order, capitalist economic system and traditional social system. These new changes have both negative and positive effects over the lives of women also. A modest attempt has been made to compare the differences in contemporary position of Kazakh and Uzbek women despite of their common USSR legacy and Islamic society. The relevance of this book can be judged both in the context of Islamic and Socialist Feminist theories and practices to understand patriarchal organization in Central Asian states. The streams of Socialist and Islamic Feminism are critically analyzed and further the way it made contribution in women's emancipation. Socialist feminism generally took every step in women emancipation in national interests rather than in women's interest. Though the book broadly deals with the position of women in Central Asia, but at the same time its focus is to study Kazakh and Uzbek women.

‎McCONE AND FRIENDS SIGNED COPY / LIMITED EDITION‎

‎Norfolk: VA: Crippen & Landru 2000. 1st edition with complete number line beginning with 1. Fine in fine dust jacket not price clipped in protective mylar cover. Errata sheet laid in. One of 350 SIGNED & NUMBERED copies this being #267. Accompanying each copy is a seperately printed pamphlet "The Time of the Wolves" by Muller. Creator of the modern female private eye story Marcia Muller has been writing novels and short stories about Sharon McCone since 1977. In the process McCone has gained a host of associates and formed her own detective agency. Some seven years ago Marcia Muller decided to show readers different views of her sleuth by relating cases through the eyes of McCone’s colleagues. McCone and Friends contains three stories told by McCone herself as well as a novella and a short story narrated by the agency’s investigator Rae Kelleher a story from the viewpoint of its office manager Ted Smalley an investigation conducted by McCone’s nephew Mick Savage and one by her long-term lover Hy Ripinsky. The settings range from small planes to a sweatshop which puts Asian women into virtual slavery and the mysteries surround a 1950s jukebox in a rundown hotel and a sculpture welded together by a long-missing and now very-dead artist. In perhaps the most moving story of all a teenage girl has vanished leaving as a clue only a collage on her wall. McCone and Friends shows why Marcia Muller is one of the greatest mystery writers of our generation. Signed by Author. First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. Limited/ Numbered Edition.
